Our Mission

The Coalition was formed in 2012 to protect and restore the land and waters in the Delaware River Basin. We amplify the collective power of 190+ member organizations and other stakeholders as we advocate for a healthy and protected watershed with a unified voice. The Coalition convenes member and non-member organizations, builds capacity, coordinates communications, and advances policy at the federal and state levels.

OUR VISION

Our vision is a Delaware River Basin recognized as one of America's Great Waters, providing clean water, healthy habitat, and accessible outdoor recreation and public access. The Coalition’s advocacy efforts will encourage broad participation and collaboration so the Basin is robustly funded and sustainably managed to support people and wildlife.

In 2020, the Coalition adopted a 5-year strategic direction, providing the tools our network needs to be successful. We will continue to use our collective voice to advance watershed-wide planning, federal funding, and advocate for federal and state issues. Our plan details our goals, objectives, and activities to create collaborative and well-connected network to benefit both people and wildlife across the Delaware River watershed.
